Applicant Tracking System (ATS)

An ATS is the hiring system that hosts role pages, application forms, and candidate workflows. Examples include Ashby, Lever, Greenhouse, and Workable.

Why it matters

ats.fyi reads jobs from ATS endpoints and board pages, so understanding ATS behavior explains why listings appear, change, or disappear.
